I took my Wilson Combat CQB out for 100 rounds yesterday. I was feeling fluish and was a bit shakey but still kept em all in the black at 25 yards. at 10 yards I put 2 mags into the guys fist on the hostage situation target.

It reminded me why I love this pistol. My friend had a 40 S&W with a polymer frame (It wasn't a M&P, might have been a sigma. I couldn't hit shit with the long ass double action trigger that was on it.

When I got home I had a new american rifleman with an article on the 1911 used in the winning of the medal of honor, it read like an advertisement.

Long live the 1911 .45 ACP!

lol, I still havent found anything that feels as good or solid in the hand as the 1911. I know that is a matter of personal preference but for me nothing else feels quite right

I have to agree. I have a 9mm that is fun to shoot, but the 1911 in .45 is a pleasure to shoot. It kicks more, but it is a powerful kick vice the snap of other guns. I fired a .44 mag for the first time about a month ago, it flipped more than kicked, no pleasure in that for me at all.

Hope you feel better quick.

I agree with you the 1911 feels so natural in the hand.

The 1911 points well for me and I like the trigger.

The 1911 has more combat time than any of the others have in the chow line. LOL
